Ergonomic Webdezign for Back Care Specialists

North London based Web Development Agency apply the principles of ergonomics to web design and ecommerce.

London, United Kingdom, February 04, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Ecommerce specialist Webdezign (www.webdezign.co.uk) has been utilising Back2’s understanding of Ergonomics to create a “comfortable to use” online back care retailing site for its customers.

Mike Yan, Webdezign’s Managing Director commented “Until recently the Back2.co.uk website had been suffering from a range of ‘pains’ caused by a combination of usability, design and technical issues. Our brief was to deliver a site that relieved these pains as well as enhancing its posture!”

The International Ergonomics Association defines “Ergonomics”as “the profession that applies theory, principles, data and methods to design in order to optimize human well-being and overall system performance.” Active Webdezign applied this way of thinking to the design of Back2’s website.

The previous site offered a poor user experience and search engine optimisation capability was restricted by the design. Back2 employed Active Webdezign to build the new website.

Their requirements were:
· excellent usability
· well optimised design with ongoing SEO support
· flexible product options and filtering
· easy video integration
· after sales support

Ted Boyle, Managing Director of Back2, says:

“We contacted more than six web design companies but none of them ticked all the boxes required for an exceptional website and CMS. We were beginning to think that we’d have to give up on some of our ideals and go for the best of a poor bunch. But then we discovered Webdezign which not only ticked all of the boxes, but came up with many more we hadn’t considered. Their design is excellent, their CMS is extraordinarily flexible, and their people are a real pleasure to work with. Oh, and they don’t charge the Earth. Do yourself a favour and find out what they can offer you!”

To date the re-launched site has already been shortlisted for a range of awards and customer feedback has been very positive. This has been backed up by a x% increase in conversions.
